Modular proteins from the Drosophila sallimus (sls) gene and their expression in muscles with different extensibility [PDF]
The passive elasticity of the sarcomere in striated muscle is determined by large modular proteins, such as titin in vertebrates. In insects, the function of titin is divided between two shorter proteins, projectin and sallimus (Sls), which are the ...
